[RBW] Re: Has anyone seen these shoes
Those Dromarti shoes look very nice, but a bit pricey. Also I'm strange in that I ride SPD on my right foot, but Riv style on my left so I need a shoe with a recessed SPD cleat that is also ok riding without the cleat. The Dromarti Sportive might work, but that hard rubber sole with little surface area wouldn't be too good. So far the best I've found are the Shimano MTB shoes like the MT30 etc. They have a nice wide surface for a platform and a good recess for a cleat and they can pass for sneakers and are good walking around town. But when I saw the Exustar's I thought they looked might be perfect. Looks like I'll have to buy a pair from the UK to see.

Thanks for the info. I'm looking for something that's SPD compatible so the Exustar's caught my eye.

Haven't tried them but posted a similar question in the CTC forum and got some good info: http://forum.ctc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?p=158322 The other Exustar called 'Stelvio' seem a bit wider and more rugged but has plastic covered leather: http://forum.ctc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?t=7081 http://www.bikebrothers.co.uk/newshoes.htm If you use flat or clips pedals there are still some producers of traditional 'walkable' cycling shoes: http://reynoldsshoes.co.uk/ http://www.williamlennon.co.uk/footwear/arturo-wide-fitting-cycle-shoe.html http://bikeportland.org/2008/07/10/made-in-portland-a-very-classy-pair-of-bicycle-shoes/ http://www.exitshoes.com/exit/custom-shoes/ http://www.cycles-alex-singer.fr/boutique/bonneterie/chaussures-de-velo.html http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=sv&sl=ja&tl=en&u=http://www.cyclesgrandbois.com/SHOP/279822/290721/list.html On 20 Apr, 04:44, usuk2007 wrote: > http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/cycle/7/Exustar_SRT_707_Commuter~Office_Sho... > > I noticed my old Shimano MTB shoes were getting a bit old yesterday so > I looked for something new > and came up with these traditional looking SPD compatible leather > shoes.
